E200 '98 Webasto timer
Has just gone from Corolla '94 to '98 E200, and what an upgrade! Everything works and the rust is takencare of! Great comfort compared to my Corolla! :p Seller said it was a control panel he did not know what was in the ashtray, which I found out controls the aux heater eventually.
The heater start when I press the "flame" symbol, will gradually heat The problem is that the display only flashing "0000", which according to manual means that the clock must be set. This I could not do when I press buttons according to the user manual. As I understand it, I hit the "clock" button plus one of the arrows to set the clock. But in any case its only blinking "0000".
I wonder if the buttons might not get contact when I press them.
Suggestion for action?

The video shows only control panel where towaristch has the same problem you do.
Webasto was never delivered on American market, so only European owners might share their experience.
I deal with lot of different timers and the older ones do have "user unfriendly" programming, what take lot of persistence.
I think your main problem is that you assumed the button sets the clock, when it is actually timer.
Than again, I have generic experience only.
On funny note, if you know a teenager who likes computer games, he might figure it out much faster than you do.
Good luck.
